A beautiful young woman stopped a taxi
in a big square and said to the driver, "Do you see that young man at the other
side of the square " "Yes," said the driver. The young man was standing outside
a restaurant and looking at his watch every few seconds. "Take me over there,"
said the young woman. There were a lot of cars, buses and trucks in the square,
so the taxi driver asked, "Are you afraid to cross the street " "Oh, no." said
the young woman. "But I said I would meet that young man for lunch at one
o’clock, and it is now a quarter to two. If I arrive in a taxi, it will at least
seem that I have tried not to be too late." |
